Workshop on the vBNS and the Research Agendafor Networking and Applications; June 22-23, 1995; Washington, D. C.

作为NSFNET新架构的一部分，NSF正在资助一个非常高速骨干网服务（vBNS）的创建。设想vBNS的主要作用是作为研究超高速网络和网络应用的平台。既然vBNS项目正在进行中，现在是时候让研究界和负责vBNS的人开始更密切的对话，讨论在vBNS上可以做什么，将要做什么，以及研究人员如何获得访问基础设施的机会。计算研究协会将赞助一个研讨会来开始这个对话。来自学术界和工业界的大约30名网络和应用方面的研究人员将于1995年6月22日和23日在华盛顿特区开会。他们将与政府机构官员、vBNS设计师和运营商一起，讨论高速网络当前和未来可能的研究议程，以及这些议程对作为实验环境的vBNS的影响。

9526366 Weingarten As part of its new architecture for NSFNET, NSF is funding the creation of a very High Speed Backbone Network Service (vBNS). A major role envisioned for the vBNS is to serve as a platform for research on very high speed networking and networking applications. Now that the vBNS project is underway, it is time for the research community and those responsible for the vBNS to begin a closer dialog on what research can and will be done on the vBNS and how the researchers will gain access to the infrastructure. The Computing Research Association will sponsor a workshop to start that dialog. Approximately thirty researchers in networking and applications, from academia and industry, will meet in Washington DC on June 22 and 23, 1995. together with government agency officials and vBNS designers and operators, they will discuss the current and likely future research agendas in high speed networking and the implications of those agendas for the vBNS as an experimental environment.
